Skype doesn't accept Microsoft password when updating Skype

Problem: Skype does not accept my password when updating profile.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. I log into Skype successfully
2. I choose edit profile
3. I make changes and save
4. Skype prompts for my password
5. I put in the same password I used to successfully login
6. Skype reports that the password is incorrect.
Additional information:
- I use Microsoft login to access my Skype account.
-I have always used my Microsoft account. I do not have a Skype username

I am having precisely the same issue. I can access my account but edits to my profile are not accepted and I’m informed my password is incorrect. I’m using Windows 8 and set up the Skype account through the Windows 8 app., using my MSN account. Clicking the app gets me to my Skype account but won’t allow changes. I’ve tried resetting the password several times to no avail. Thanks in advance for any help.

HT3376 My Bt Yahoo email account doesn't accept my password when my Mac gives it but if I access my BT yahoo via Safari it accepts the password

my BT yahoo email account doesn't accept my password when my Mac tries to access it using mac mail but when I access My BT Yahoo via Safari it accepts the password.

When it doesn't accept the password from Mail , it can be things other than the password actually.
It could be their Server, which is contacted differently than through WebMail, it just means the Server listening on this port, (or not listening), is not finding your username & password.

Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access?

Apple password not working in iCloud since I updates my email address. Still lists my old email but doesn't accept old password. How do I access the cloud?

To change the iCloud ID ("email") you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. When you do this you may find that the password for your old ID isn't accepted. If this should happen, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Have Microsoft password but need SKYPE password to...

Hi It seems my skype account got hacked. as I have a strange email as main email in my account.
So I went on and changed my password ( Microsoft password) and wanted to updated and delete the wrong information in my skype account. But the skype system requires me to now log on with my SKYPE PASSWORT not my Microsoft password. But evidently I forgot it or the hacker changed it.
Creating a new account is not an option for me as I use the number for business and its on many handed out name cards.
How can I change my SKYPE password in this case?
How can I secure the money which is in the account?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Why won't Elements 10 accept my password when it did before?

I have tried numerous times to put in the password when opening Elements 10. It would not accept it. so I decided to get a new password. In filling out the outline they want you to click yes on the Personal URL. Meaning I assume that you put your pictures on the wed for others. I do not want this. Am I not understanding that.

Double post.

I can't update apps as itunes doesn't accept my password on iphone 5

I cannot update my apps because iTunes won't accept my password.

Make sure that under the settings app --> store --> Apple ID:[your apple ID here] is correct. If it is, go to https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/wa/iforgot and reset your password to what you want it to be. If it is not the apple ID you bought the apps on, then change it and try again.
And Drbean: are you logged in under the account you bought them in and entering the current password?

IPHONE 4 DOESN'T ACCEPT WIFI PASSWORDS ANYMORE - PLEASE HELP!

Hi all,
My iPhone 4 out of blue decided not to accept the wifi password- it says "wrong password for xxx network" - it's my home one it always worked-
I was away and worked fine for a week in others houses (where the password was stored already) went to other house, tried to connect with passwprd and started saying the pw was wrong - got home last night and didn't connect right away as usual(maybe because I've reset the network when away) so I've put the pw in and again says it's wrong - Of course the password is correct - laptop works fine and iPod touch as well - At work there is a non protected wifi and it connects fine - So looks like the iPhone doesn't accept passwprds for the wifi
I've tryed to reset the network few times, reboot it few times, reset all settings and update the sofware (version 5.0.1) - nothing worked - aw also unpluged and re-pluged the router at home (knowiing wouldn't' help)
PLEASE help, very frustrating - I've seen few people had the same issue but nothing worked.
Thanks

You're welcome.
Incorrect. The passcode lock is not included with the backup. The restrictions passcode is, but not the passcode lock. If it were included with the backup, you would need to restore as a new device or not from the backup. Either way, you must restore with iTunes which is the only way around a forgotten passcode.

Mavericks doesn't ask for password when copying files into applications folder (e.g. installing plugins for After Effects)

For example, when i was copied a plugin for after effects into the plugins folder, finder asked me for my password and now it doesn't. I can just copy it directly without any authentication.

Do you have Service Pack 1 for Windows 7? It's listed in the system requirements for CC 2014. If you don't have SP1, AE won't run.
That GPU sniffer error message is usually what happens. This should be a simple fix! Of course, you should always take the normal precautions when updating an OS, but still...
